Giannis Antetokounmpo has headlined the Milwaukee Bucks' injury report for Wednesday's home game against the Detroit Pistons after sparking trade buzz. The two-time MVP removed the majority of his social media posts highlighting the Bucks on Tuesday.
It has sparked speculation about his future with the franchise amid their 9-13 record. Antetokounmpo is probable to play against the Pistons, citing left adductor injury management. He missed a week due to this injury, which he initially suffered on Nov. 17. Despite the injury and trade speculation, Antetokounmpo will likely suit up.
Meanwhile, Kevin Porter Jr. is iffy to play with a questionable status. The veteran point guard returns to the injury report due to lower back muscle spasm. Porter Jr. missed 19 games with an ankle sprain he suffered on Oct. 22. He returned Saturday against Brooklyn.
Gary Harris is also questionable. He is dealing with right Achilles soreness. Harris missed Monday's loss to Washington. He has appeared in 14 of 21 games this season.
